End of Year Event: It’s a Wrap

Newmarket Public Library, Multipurpose Room 438 Park Ave, Newmarket, Ontario, Canada

End of Year Event: It’s a Wrap!

Let’s catch up in real life. Join us for some time to chat with fellow WCYR members. We’ll  share our experiences of the joy of writing and celebrate our learning, submissions, acceptances, publications and rejections. 

The mic will be open. Come prepared to read a short piece of writing (3 minutes maximum) or sit back and enjoy listening to others. Sign up when you arrive.

Please bring a wrapped, gently used book for a book exchange. Print only the name of the genre on the label.

The event: Kenneth Oppel is the internationally bestselling, award-winning author of 36 books for children and young adults. His books feature memorable characters, page-turner plots and intricate, well-researched worlds. On May 3, join the WCYR and the WCDR from the comfort of your own home for your chance to learn from one of Canada’s most celebrated authors—someone who has had a lifelong love affair with the written word. Whether you write for kids, for adults, or for your own joy, this online workshop will help you with some of the most essential aspects of writing craft: character, plot and research. Bring your questions! The hour-long craft workshop will be followed by a half-hour Q and A session.
